Meadows looks towards slots

November 7

Today, online casino players are reading about the new development regarding slot machines. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Meadows racetrack is moving in the direction towards slot machines. The new proposed slot casino will be located at the Washington County harness racing track.

The owner of the race track, Magna Entertainment Corp., has started engineering work and bidding to move the horse paddock in order to house the new slot casino. Online casino fans are excited that their might be another land location for them to play slots at.

The Meadows race track is one of 7 existing or planned horse racing tracks in the state of Pennsylvania vying for slots if pending laws are put into place allowing the slot casinos.

The gaming board in Pennsylvania had hoped to give licenses for all 7 tracks by March or April 2006. Currently, officials are now fearing that the licensing will not take place until mid 2006. Hopefully online casinos players will not have to wait too long in Pennsylvania for a place to gamble on land if they choose to do so.
